the water weighs about 10 lbs per gallon.

Water is actually about 8 1/3 pounds per U.S. gallon, but with docorations, gravel, plants, etc. 10 pounds per U.S. gallon is a pretty good estimate of the weight.

p.s. you can use Google to do your calculations for you. Type "20 cm x 60 cm x 20 cm in US gallons" and Google gives you the answer

that works out at 6.34 us gallons - so that would be roughly 63 pound
